Moonstones are among the most captivating gemstones of the Indian subcontinent. Their mysterious play of colours recalls the gentle light of the moon, creating an extraordinary effect known in gemmology as "adularescence." This term describes the distinctive bluish-white shimmer that moves gracefully across the stone’s surface when touched by light. This bracelet, crafted around 1910, features a round moonstone cabochon at its centre. The band, made of delicate, openwork links, widens gently towards the centre, forming an elegant setting for the stone, framed by small rose-cut diamonds. The cabochon captivates with its soft blue-white hue, a characteristic unique to moonstones from the gemstone mines of southern Ceylon—a rarity today. Each movement brings forth new, shimmering light reflections that continuously transform the appearance of the stone. The fine diamond settings and the rest of the band’s links are crafted in gold and plated with fine platinum, which subtly enhances the bracelet’s ethereal play of colours. This is a truly enchanting piece for the wrist, beautifully preserved through time and ready to be worn effortlessly even today. We discovered this bracelet, likely made in England, in Cologne.
